...but this points out an interesting duality.

If two women showed up at an event in the same dress, they'd be avoiding each other and staring daggers at each other across the room all night.

If two men showed up at an event wearing the same tartan, they'd assume that they were cousins and spend the evening hanging out together and buying each other drinks.

Very good point.

The story goes that Margaret Thatcher when she was Prime Minister actually asked the Palace what the Queen would be wearing at some function they would both be attending to avoid them both wearing the same dress.

The response from the Palace was "Her Majesty never notices what any lady is wearing."
